Mayfair

Swanky West End

Mayfair is an affluent district in the West End of London, known for luxury hotels, high-end shopping, and expensive real estate.

The name evokes wealth and exclusivity: a Mayfair address, Mayfair prices.

In Monopoly, Mayfair is the most expensive property on the British board.

The area takes its name from an annual fair once held there in May.
